Getting Started
For the best results, we need some details.
In order to calculate your optimal run time schedule, we need some basic information about your irrigation system and your landscape, including:
- The model of your irrigation controller
- How your landscape is divided into stations. A station is a group of sprinklers that are controlled by a single valve. A station is also known as a zone.
- The type of soil and plants you have
- How much sunlight each station receives
- The type of sprinklers you use for each station
- Any restrictions your local government has on outdoor water use.
You will be asked to enter this information as we go through the steps to calculate your watering schedule. It may be helpful to draw a simple map of the stations within your landscape so you can refer to it throughout the process.
